One of the most inspiring artists in my life is photographer, Joshua Hoffine. Hoffine’s work consists of horror photography and artistic representations of the grotesque & macabre. My fascination and appreciation for B horror films stem from my childhood obsession with fairy tales and science fiction. Most of my art work reflects this long-time love of mine, and Joshua Hoffine has inspired a lot of my work. His use of special effects make up has set a bar for me to reach as a professional designer one day.

I’ve included a video interview with him done at Festival of Fear, a video of him explaining his design process, and a link to his website as well. Please give him a look, but for those easily spooked, you may want to pass on some of his more…brutal shots. Regardless, I hope you all can appreciate his works as much as I have over the years.
